  • jo and mrs chaos sorry i don't know the answers to the condensed milk questions, but soappie will.

    greenbee ring the people who are faffing and say very sweetly that you have decided to cancel as you can't get enough people who can commit to that date, then do something much smaller for the select few. I think its really rude not to answer you properly. Having kids does not exempt a person from normal manners.

    Happy New Year to all flypeeps, and safe journeys for anyone braving the weather. Thanks to pigpen toots and soappie for holding it all together.
    Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x

    Just want to say a huge thanks to Diva for being there on the phone for me this morning :A love you sweetie xx Don't want to say too much & spoil everyones' New Year.....but I will just say things have not gone well with KH :mad:

    Sweetheart - you never have to say thank you, I am ALWAYS here for you and you know that. And I love you too.

    Back on topic - have had my Tescos order so we now have flour and yeast etc for breadmaking etc and have done all the email sorting I can cope with today.

    Letter from the blood service arrived today... inviting me to a session next week. No appointments available. In fact, no appointments available anywhere local until about April :confused::confused::confused: So why not send an earlier reminder, or put on more sessions. They claims stocks are low and then make it impossible for you to actually donate :rolleyes:. Work sessions are out of sink with my donation schedule, and I can't wait for them, as they're set up a short notice and I may not be around...

    Suppose I should go and do some more unpacking.
